July 10, 2022, NL-Simonshaven - Nach Hellevoetsluis zum Hafen

Hellevoetsluis, a port town with a former fortification built in the early 17th century, is located in the Noordzeepark-Deltageul. The port is absolutely interesting and diverse, there is a lot to see, such as several museums, parts of the old defense system, some nice places to stay, beautiful port areas and a water tower from 1896. The route there and back is super easy to drive and is really fun along the Haringvliet, the Spui and the Bernisse. Great ...
